Former Watford striker Troy Deeney has reportedly signed up to take part in the 2025 edition of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
The 35-year-old, who retired as a player a year ago, has previously spent time in jail for affray and has spoken openly about his issues with alcohol and anger - topics that are likely to surface during his time on the notoriously-tough Channel 4 show.
The programme is typically filmed a year in advance and Deeney is thought to be in the lineup for next year's edition, which is being filmed in Wales this summer.
A source told The Sun: "Footballers' competitive streak seems to lend itself to taking part. Troy is likely to discuss some of the most upsetting elements of his life in the interrogation room with the instructors.
"Often the celebrities taking part reveal deep-rooted problems that only manifest themselves fully when they're pushed to the limit in the competition."
This year's series was filmed in New Zealand and features a celebrity lineup including Chris Robshaw, Rachel Johnson, John Barrowman and Bianca Gascoigne.
